The figures, which were constructed from data on Trigold’s mortgage sourcing system in January, suggests broker market activity is growing as intermediaries are now using the system to source a mortgage every second.
There has also been a 34% increase in the cases which are sent through Trigold’s E-Trading Centre, a internal portal which is designed to make sending mortgage applications quicker and easier.
David Aylmer, business development and marketing director at TrigoldCrystal, commented: “Brokers are sourcing more and more and this activity is resulting in a huge rise in applications going through the system. It is reassuring that business levels are rising in the industry.”
